Since commit f1d87664b82a ("kbuild: cross-compile linux-headers package when possible"), 'make bindeb-pkg' may attempt to cross-compile the linux-headers package, but it fails under certain circumstances. For example, when CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORMAT is enabled on Debian, the following command fails: $ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- bindeb-pkg [ snip ] Rebuilding host programs with aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc...

This commit adds a new profile, pkg.linux-upstream.nokernelheaders, to guard the linux-headers package. There are two options to fix the above issue. [option 1] Set the pkg.linux-upstream.nokernelheaders build profile $ DEB_BUILD_PROFILES=pkg.linux-upstream.nokernelheaders \ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- bindeb-pkg This skips the building of the linux-headers package. [option 2] Install the necessary build dependencies If you want to cross-compile the linux-headers package, you need to install additional packages. This is a one-time installation step. For example, on Debian, the packages necessary for cross-compiling it to arm64 can be installed with the following commands: # dpkg --add-architecture arm64 # apt update # apt install gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu libssl-dev:arm64 Fixes: f1d87664b82a ("kbuild: cross-compile linux-headers package when possible") Reported-by: Ron Economos <re@xxxxxxxx> Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/b3d4f49e-7ddb-29ba-0967-689232329b53@xxxxxxxx/ Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@xxxxxxxxxx> --- scripts/package/builddeb | 2 +- scripts/package/install-extmod-build | 6 ++---- scripts/package/mkdebian | 9 ++++++++- 3 files changed, 11 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/scripts/package/builddeb b/scripts/package/builddeb index 404587fc71fe..441b0bb66e0d 100755 --- a/scripts/package/builddeb +++ b/scripts/package/builddeb @@ -123,7 +123,7 @@ install_kernel_headers () { pdir=debian/$1 version=${1#linux-headers-} - "${srctree}/scripts/package/install-extmod-build" "${pdir}/usr/src/linux-headers-${version}" + CC="${DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE}-gcc" "${srctree}/scripts/package/install-extmod-build" "${pdir}/usr/src/linux-headers-${version}" mkdir -p $pdir/lib/modules/$version/ ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-$version $pdir/lib/modules/$version/build diff --git a/scripts/package/install-extmod-build b/scripts/package/install-extmod-build index d2c9cacecc0c..7ec1f061a519 100755 --- a/scripts/package/install-extmod-build +++ b/scripts/package/install-extmod-build @@ -44,13 +44,11 @@ mkdir -p "${destdir}" fi } | tar -c -f - -T - | tar -xf - -C "${destdir}" -# When ${CC} and ${HOSTCC} differ, we are likely cross-compiling.
